This is an edit of Friday's livestream. The full hour is here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lw-u-DYuXNU Financial-market and gilt-yield turbulence is already feeding through to movers. The Lloyds (ex-Halifax) house price index has annual growth trending down for about a year — it was roughly 2.3% year-on-year last August and has now gone below zero — another nudge for sellers to stop believing prices only go up and to price to sell. Five lenders (Barclays, Santander, Skipton, TSB and Nottingham) hiked fixed mortgage rates after the bond-market turmoil, many by around 0.15 percentage points, with NatWest and HSBC having moved earlier; 30-year gilt yields hit their highest level since 1998, and further rate rises will squeeze buyer budgets and first-time-buyer prices hardest. Property Mark's leasehold survey has 93% of leaseholders saying they would not buy leasehold again, and more than 70% of agents saying they have pulled unsellable leasehold flats from the market. High loan-to-value lending is back at stress levels: Bank of England data (8 September) show 8.4% of gross mortgage advances in Q2 2026 had an LTV above 90% — up 0.4 percentage points on the quarter and the highest share since 2008 — with about half a percent of new advances on a 5% deposit or less. And while five banks hike mortgage rates, Mortgage Advice Bureau shares slide on a profit warning: gilt and bond uncertainty hits housing-market businesses (around 60% of deals need a mortgage), slows the giant transaction chain, snows brokers under with reprices and pulled deals, and looks set to kill this year's autumn market before it even gets going.Support the showFollow me on X for daily updates: https://x.com/moving_charlie

With the latest energy shock pushing UK inflation higher while economic growth remains subdued, investors are questioning whether markets have priced too much Bank of England tightening. Jack Meaning, UK chief economist at Barclays, joins Bloomberg Intelligence chief US interest rate strategist Ira Jersey to discuss that and more on this Macro Matters edition of the FICC Focus podcast. Meaning explains why Barclays expects inflation to climb above 3% in the second half of 2026 but sees little evidence of the wage or second-round effects that would make the increase durable. The two discuss why keeping Bank Rate at 3.75% already represents a meaningful tightening relative to earlier market expectations and how restrictive financing conditions and labor-market slack are weighing on growth. They also explore whether improving investment intentions — including spending tied to artificial intelligence — can provide support. The conversation examines Brexit's lingering impact, the UK's difficult fiscal choices and why Barclays expects the Bank of England to remain on hold this year before inflation moves back toward target in 2027. The episode concludes with a look at the central bank's upcoming quantitative-tightening decision and the debate over continuing active gilt sales.

En este episodio charlo con Carlos Dexeus, fundador y presidente de Altex Asset Management y presidente de Tamba Group. Su trayectoria recorre varias décadas de banca de inversión, private equity, tecnología y gestión patrimonial: once años en JP Morgan, el montaje de Swiss Bank Corporation en España, la dirección de banca de inversión de Barclays, un paso por Inditex y el salto a Internet como inversor en NetJuice, Kelkoo y Tuenti. En 2003 fundó Altex y en 2008 le tocó aportar patrimonio personal para que sus clientes pudieran recuperar su liquidez. Hoy compagina la gestora con un grupo de hoteles y campings.La conversación muestra cómo invierte alguien que ha vivido tres crisis con su propio dinero dentro. Explica también por qué no hace ningún negocio que no pueda cubrir con capital propio, y por qué, al contrario de la regla clásica, asume más riesgo a medida que cumple años.Este episodio está patrocinado por CRESCENTA y su nuevo Fondo de Inversión Libre (FIL), el Multistrategy Private Equity Access I, que empaqueta lo mejor del capital privado —Buyouts, Growth Equity y Activos reales— con una gran ventaja fiscal: puedes traspasar tu dinero desde otros fondos retrasando el peaje fiscal.

From cringeworthy UK government social media stunts involving boxes of fish and chips to the ongoing fall out of the BBC Glasgow documentry and the systemic failure of local democracy, this week Lesley and Fraser unravel the disconnect between political PR and real community power. Whether it is ministers trying to "wrap their arms around" energy planning policy, Nordic journalists wondering why Scotland did not seize post-Brexit independence, or feudal landowners holding vital community ferry links hostage, the theme remains constant: Scotland urgently needs genuine local agency and strategic collaboration.In this episode, we discuss:The Scotland Office Fish & Chip Flop: Lesley and Fraser dissect a "woeful" UK government social media clip featuring MP Melanie Ward attempting to illustrate unionist economic points with two sizes of fish and chips. Data Centres, Energy Grid & District Heating: Following news that data centre planning applications exceeding 50 megawatts must now be reported to Scottish ministers within seven days, the pod dives into the massive energy and water demands of hyperscale facilities. Lesley highlights the missed opportunity around waste heat, arguing that data centres should be strictly mandated to supply district heating to local communities as a condition of planning consent.Community Resistance at Cockenzie: A look at the fierce local opposition in East Lothian over proposed data centre developments at the former Cockenzie power station site. Despite being well-connected to offshore wind landing points from North Berwick Bank, local communities remain skeptical due to a lack of national strategy and meaningful local consultation.Lessons from a Nordic Journalist: Lesley recounts a conversation in Dundee with a visiting Nordic journalist who was baffled by Scotland's post-Brexit hesitation to pursue independence. The discussion covers Scotland's top-heavy system of 32 giant local councils, the lack of collaboration between SNP leadership and civic think tanks like Common Weal or the Scottish Currency Group, and the essential role of local empowerment.Housing First vs. Social Housing Targets: Comparing Andy Burnham's homelessness initiative in Manchester with housing targets across the UK. The pod examines the Scottish Government's pledge for 110,000 affordable homes by 2032 alongside the structural hurdles created by volume housebuilders land-banking prime sites.Great Bernera's Legal Aid Absurdity: How a community on Great Bernera—already struggling with a stalled buyout due to an absentee landowner—is now facing crippling legal fees as dog owner sues them for refusing her entry with her dog. Feudal Dues on the Glenelg Ferry: The unique MV Glenachulish—the world's last manual turntable car ferry operating between Glenelg and Skye—faces a crisis due to ancient "right to ferry" feudal dues claimed by absentee landowner Richard Oliphant. Community campaigners, supported by former MSP Andy Wightman, are exploring a Community Right to Buy or legal action to save the vital crossing.BBC Scotland Cuts & "Welcome to Glasgow" Slant: With 60 jobs on the line and the BBC Scotland channel facing severe pressure, Lesley and Fraser critique the controversial Welcome to Glasgow documentary. They highlight how the programme relied heavily on a self-appointed vigilante group while failing to consult the Violence Reduction Unit or examine systemic deprivation.Barclays Five & Direct Action: A major legal milestone as a judge rules that five Palestine Action activists facing charges over damage to a Barclays branch in Lancashire will not be sentenced under terrorism legislation.Links & Mentioned Events:Support the Podcast: Lesley Riddoch Podcast SupportEast Lothian Courier Article: Coverage of the standing-room-only Cockenzie House community meeting regarding data centre proposals.Bramble Ice Cream Recipe Link: Included in this week's show notes following popular demand. ★ Support this podcast ★

On this episode of the Insurance Coffee House, Nick Hoadley is joined by Kirk Southern, Group Chief People Officer at Howden, a global insurance group with around 26,000 employees across 57 countries.Kirk shares his career journey from recruitment into HR, beginning with an administrative role during the financial crisis before moving into HR at Royal Bank of Canada. He reflects on the importance of early sponsorship, the value of learning directly from the business, and how roles at Citadel, Barclays and Arrow Global helped him build experience across business partnering, commercial management and reward before joining Howden in 2022.The conversation explores Kirk's transition from Global Head of Reward, Benefits and Wellbeing into the Group Chief People Officer role, and what it means to lead the people function within a rapidly growing, founder-led insurance business. Kirk explains why one of his biggest priorities is protecting Howden's culture while continuing to bring in talent that is comfortable with autonomy, ambiguity and taking responsibility for building and growing the business.Nick and Kirk discuss how the role of the Chief People Officer is changing. Kirk argues that CPOs and CHROs are increasingly expected to operate as commercial advisers to CEOs, boards and investors, with a clear understanding of how people decisions connect to growth, revenue, profitability and long-term value creation. He reflects on why commercial acumen, data and organisational design are becoming increasingly important capabilities within the profession.The discussion also looks at Kirk's relationship with Howden founder and CEO David Howden. Kirk shares what he has learned from working closely with a founder-led leadership team and why having a genuine voice in strategic conversations matters. He discusses some of the questions senior leadership teams are considering around workforce planning, culture, organisational design and how businesses remain flexible as technology and the world of work continue to develop.Nick and Kirk also explore how Howden is approaching technology across a large and growing organisation. Kirk explains how curiosity and experimentation are already part of the culture, making the challenge less about encouraging adoption and more about prioritising the opportunities that can create meaningful value. He discusses the importance of balancing experimentation with governance, understanding the implications for organisational design and skills, and keeping people at the centre of those decisions.The conversation then turns to the relationship between the people function and the board. Kirk explains why HR leaders need to move beyond professional terminology and understand how the business actually makes money. For him, combining strong people expertise with commercial understanding is one of the clearest differences between being an HR specialist and operating effectively at CPO or CHRO level.Kirk closes with advice for HR professionals who aspire to reach senior leadership. He emphasises patience, humility and the importance of building experience over time. He encourages people to remain ambitious while recognising that judgment develops through experience, mistakes and exposure to different business situations.Connect with Kirk Southern on LinkedIn to follow his work across people leadership, organisational strategy, culture and talent at Howden.The Insurance Coffee House Podcast is brought to you by Insurance Search.We are a global Insurance Executive Search Consultancy, supporting Insurance and Insurtech businesses to attract and retain the very best insurance talent.Find out more about showcasing your employer brand as a guest on the Insurance Coffee House Podcast or sign up to our News and Insights.Or follow us on LinkedIn, Twitter or Instagram.Insurance Executive Search Consultants in USA, London and Bermuda.Copyright Insurance Search 2025 - All Rights Reserved.

Investors sued Barclays and its former chief executive, Jes Staley, alleging that the bank misled shareholders about the true nature of Staley's relationship with Jeffrey Epstein and concealed risks that eventually damaged the company and its investors. The securities class action, led by pension funds, alleged that Barclays repeatedly presented Staley's connection to Epstein as essentially professional even though evidence later revealed a far closer relationship, including extensive communications in which Staley referred to Epstein as “family.” The investors argued that Barclays either knew or should have known that its public statements were misleading and that the bank's handling of regulatory inquiries understated the reputational, financial and legal danger surrounding its CEO's Epstein ties. When additional information about the relationship became public and Staley ultimately left Barclays amid regulatory scrutiny, the lawsuit alleged that the bank's share price suffered and investors were harmed. A federal judge allowed important portions of the case to proceed, including claims against Staley and narrowed claims against Barclays and chairman Nigel Higgins, finding that investors had plausibly alleged that statements portraying the Epstein relationship as merely professional could have been misleading.At the same time, House Oversight Committee Chairman James Comer dramatically escalated his confrontation with billionaire Leon Black over Black's own relationship with Epstein. Comer warned that Black could face contempt of Congress if he failed to appear as required or refused to fully comply with subpoenas demanding nondisclosure agreements potentially relevant to the committee's Epstein investigation. Black had previously appeared voluntarily before the committee but walked out after refusing to answer certain questions concerning NDAs, prompting Comer to issue subpoenas compelling both additional testimony and production of the agreements. The dispute was particularly significant because Black paid Epstein roughly $170 million for purported tax and estate-planning services between 2012 and 2017, years after Epstein had become a registered sex offender, while a Senate Finance Committee investigation had separately questioned why Epstein received such extraordinary sums and how that money moved through the financial system. Comer maintained that Black could not personally decide which agreements were relevant to Congress and warned that continued resistance could trigger contempt proceedings, turning another Epstein associate's attempts to limit congressional scrutiny into a direct test of whether lawmakers were actually willing to enforce their subpoenas.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:Barclays faces legal fight with investors over ex-boss's Epstein linksComer threatens contempt as Black faces more Epstein probe heat - Live Updates - POLITICO

How do you give difficult feedback without damaging trust?Katie O'Brien Ceccarini, author of Fearless Feedback: Everything Managers Have Never Been Taught About Feedback and founder of Endurance Management Coaching, brings two decades of experience leading, managing, and training teams. She shares how leaders can prepare for hard conversations, navigate emotional reactions, and say what needs to be said while preserving the relationship.Katie explains that fearless feedback starts before we ever choose the right words. It begins with our mindset, the strength of the relationship, and the intention we bring into the conversation. When we believe in the other person's ability to grow, we are more likely to communicate with conviction, clarity, and care.She also shows us how to stay present when feedback brings up defensiveness, emotion, silence, or resistance. Instead of reacting to what we see on the surface, we can get curious about what may be happening underneath. We can acknowledge someone's experience without abandoning the message, and we can refocus the conversation without turning it into a debate.When we strengthen our mindset, relationships, and delivery, we can give feedback with greater courage, build trust through difficult moments, and create conversations that help people grow.Key Takeaways:Prepare Your Mindset for Feedback: Explore how the beliefs you bring into a conversation can shape how your message is received.Strengthen the Relationship First: Consider how trust and safety can create a stronger foundation for honest feedback.Open the Conversation Well: Discover how a thoughtful headline can make difficult feedback easier to hear and engage with.Navigate Difficult Reactions: Examine how the HEAR framework can help you respond when feedback triggers defensiveness, emotion, or resistance.Make a Better Second Choice: Learn how noticing your first reaction can help you approach challenging feedback conversations with greater courage.Resources MentionedThe Inspire Your Team to Greatness assessment (the Courage Assessment) - In less than 10 minutes, find out where you're empowering and inadvertently kills productivity, and get a custom report that will tell you step by step what you need to have your team get more done.

Enhanced rock weathering pulls carbon dioxide from the air using crushed rock. Jim Mann, CEO and founder of Undo, explains how the process works and why the technology scales fast. Undo turns rock dust into permanent carbon storage and sells credits to Microsoft and British Airways at $350 a ton, a price Mann expects to halve within years.The atmosphere holds 1.7 trillion tons of legacy CO2, and enhanced rock weathering ranks among the few carbon removal pathways built to pull carbon out for good. Jim Mann, CEO and founder of Undo, joins host Tim Montague to break down how his company spreads crushed basalt on farmland to speed up natural rock weathering by 50,000 to 100,000 times, turning atmospheric CO2 into bicarbonate that stays locked in the ocean for around 100,000 years.Undo counts Microsoft, Barclays, British Airways, and McLaren Racing among its customers, selling durable carbon removal credits at roughly $350 a ton today, with a path toward half that price as the company scales. Mann and Montague debate whether net zero targets go far enough, why the EU's carbon border adjustment mechanism forms the backbone of a real carbon market, and what enhanced rock weathering needs to move from thousands of tons a year to the gigaton scale the IPCC says the world needs.Here is what you will learn in this conversation about enhanced rock weathering and carbon removal economics:You'll learn how Undo speeds up natural rock weathering by 50,000 to 100,000 times by spreading crushed basalt on farmland.Find out why bicarbonate formed through enhanced rock weathering stays locked in the ocean for around 100,000 years.Understand how Undo prices carbon removal credits near $350 a ton today, and why Mann expects the price to fall by half.Hear Tim push back on net zero as a partial solution, since 1.7 trillion tons of CO2 already sit in the atmosphere.Learn how the EU's carbon border adjustment mechanism links carbon removal to emissions trading and builds a real compliance market.The EU's carbon border adjustment mechanism now stands in force, and similar rules move through the UK, Australia, New Zealand, Vietnam, and Cambodia. Regulators start linking carbon removal directly to emissions trading, moving today's voluntary carbon market toward a compliance market with real teeth. If you are trying to figure out where permanent carbon removal fits next to renewables and storage in your own project pipeline or client conversations, this episode gives you the numbers to start that conversation. Connect with Jim Mann, Undo Jim Mann | LinkedIn UNDO Website  Support the showConnect with Tim  Clean Power Hour  Clean Power Hour on YouTubeTim on TwitterTim on LinkedIn Email tim@cleanpowerhour.com Review Clean Power Hour on Apple PodcastsThe Clean Power Hour is produced by the Clean Power Consulting Group and created by Tim Montague.

Welcome back to the Alt Goes Mainstream podcast.We sat down with Anthony Maniscalco, the Managing Partner and Business Head of Investcorp Strategic Capital Group (ISCG).We were live from Berlin, which becomes the “capital of private capital” in June as private equity industry leaders make the annual pilgrimage to the city for one of the marquee private equity conferences, SuperReturn Berlin.With Prosek Partners and former Bloomberg TV journalist Deirdre Bolton as my producer, along with her team, we took over a Tiny Space cabin to hold big conversations with some of the industry's leading alternative asset managers.Investcorp has been a pioneer in private equity. Since its founding in 1982, the firm has grown from a “boutique Gulf firm” into a global and diversified alternative asset manager. Investcorp launched its Strategic Capital Group (SCG) (GP stakes) business long after its founding in 1982. But the firm brought in a pioneer to launch and build SCG into a leading GP stakes firm, which now has over $2.2B of AUM. Anthony has been involved in GP stakes from the industry's early days. He was a founding member of Blackstone Strategic Capital Holdings, a $3.3B private, permanent capital vehicle focused on acquiring minority interests in alternative asset manager GPs. He was also a Managing Director of the Hedge Fund Solutions business at The Blackstone Group. Prior to joining Investcorp, Anthony was a Managing Director and Co-Head of Credit Suisse Anteil Capital Partners. Launched in 2019, Investcorp's SCG acquires minority interests in alternative asset managers, particularly GPs that manage longer-duration private capital strategies. SCG has completed 12 investments since inception.Anthony and I had a fascinating conversation about the evolution of GP stakes and the benefits of GP stakes for investors. We covered:Why have stakes shifted from hedge funds to alternative asset managers?Why the features of the alternative asset management business model (contracted management fees, locked-up capital, less key-person risk) can make for a good GP stake investment.Why a GP would sell an equity stake in its firm to finance its growth.Unpacking the middle-market GP landscape and where middle-market GPs need help growing their firm.The evolution from fund to firm and what's next for GP stakes.BioAnthony Maniscalco is the Managing Partner and Business Head of Investcorp Strategic Capital Group (ISCG), based in New York. ISCG is focused on providing capital solutions to the GPs of mid-sized private market alternative asset managers. ISCG closed its inaugural fund in the Spring of 2022 and currently manages over $2.2 billion of AUM. In his current role, Mr. Maniscalco is focused on managing the overall business, sourcing new investment opportunities, advising portfolio GPs and is the chairperson of the Investment Committee.Prior to his current role, Mr. Maniscalco was a Managing Director and Co-Head of Credit Suisse Anteil Capital Partners. Prior to this, he was Managing Director of the Hedge Fund Solutions business at The Blackstone Group. At Blackstone, he was a founding member and on the investment committee of Blackstone Strategic Capital Holdings, a USD 3.3 billion private, permanent capital vehicle focused on acquiring minority interests in alternative asset manager GPs.Prior to Blackstone, Mr. Maniscalco was Head of Alternative Asset Management Banking at Barclays (and its predecessor Lehman Brothers) within its Financial Institutions Group. Prior to this role, Mr. Maniscalco was head of the Media and Telecom vertical within Lehman Brothers' Leveraged Finance Group.Early in his career, he worked at Bank of America and its predecessor Continental Bank in Chicago, focused on high-yield, mezzanine, syndicated bank loans, and interim financing products.Anthony holds a B.S. from Indiana University (2026 College Football National Champions!) and an M.B.A. from the University of Chicago.Thanks, Anthony, for sharing your expertise, wisdom, and passion about GP stakes and the business of alternative asset management.Show Notes00:00 Live From Berlin00:15 Meet Anthony Maniscalco02:56 Early Staking Was Hedge Funds03:05 Banks And Prime Brokerage03:40 Private Equity Hits A Wall03:53 Shift To Private Equity Stakes04:30 Why Stakes Are Attractive04:54 Locked In Fee Streams05:31 Carry And Diversification06:06 How LPs Classify Stakes06:59 Three Allocation Buckets07:55 Strategic Access Flywheel09:05 Tougher Fundraising Today09:19 Why Middle Market09:05 Fundraising Help For GPs10:55 Underwriting Growth Readiness12:15 Primary Capital Use Of Proceeds12:49 Why Equity Is Worth It14:46 Talent Retention And Next Gen15:46 Wealth Channel Fit18:23 Portfolio Construction Framework19:36 Why Venture Is Harder23:23 From Fund To Firm24:34 Liquidity And Exit Paths27:35 Prefs, Debt, And New Solutions38:41 Continuation Vehicles Flywheel41:02 Closing Thoughts

We often treat burnout as a personal failure when it is really a warning that our demands have exceeded our available time, energy, and support.Burnout prevention specialist Sophie Anderson shares five courageous habits that help us protect our energy before exhaustion takes over. She challenges us and helps us see how to practically get honest about our priorities, pause before automatically saying yes, create stronger technology boundaries, speak openly when our capacity is stretched, and make space for rest even when guilt shows up. Her perspective reminds us that capability and capacity are not the same, and that being able to do something does not always mean we have the energy or resources to take it on.By noticing the pressure we place on ourselves and making intentional changes, we can reduce overwhelm, support healthier teams, and lead with greater clarity and sustainability.Key Takeaways:Be Clear on Your Priorities:Explore how sorting what truly matters can reduce pressure and create greater focus.Say Maybe Before Saying Yes:Consider how pausing before committing can protect your time and prevent unnecessary overload.Implement Tech Boundaries:Discover how small changes to notifications and availability can reduce distraction and overwhelm.Speak Up About Overwhelm:Examine why honest conversations about capacity can strengthen support and reduce shame.Build in Rest and Recovery:Learn how making space for recovery can help you sustain your energy and leadership.Resources MentionedDownload your copy of the 5 Courageous Habits to Prevent Burnout for Leaders poster at https://www.sophieanderson.au/courageThe Inspire Your Team to Greatness assessment (the Courage Assessment) - In less than 10 minutes, find out where you're empowering and inadvertently kills productivity, and get a custom report that will tell you step by step what you need to have your team get more done.

On the ReWild Your Business podcast this week, I'm talking to Maria Cussell, an experienced leadership coach who helps high achieving leaders become even more effective by developing insight and understanding to move quickly to action, bringing them more success and fulfilment, both professionally and personally.Maria spent over twenty five years at Barclays before building a practice of her own, and somewhere in the middle of her story she said something so simple I nearly missed it.She said that when our real strengths come naturally to us, we assume everyone can do them. So we stop valuing them.Ooof.Maria spent years in corporate being told, in various polite and impolite ways, that what she was good at didn't count. She could walk into a room and connect with anyone, any place, any time. A friend once told her that when everyone else in the business was drawing up strategies to get past people's defences, Maria just walked straight through them. And yet that never showed up on a performance review, because what got measured was audit findings closed on time and synergies squeezed out of a merger. She was good at the thing nobody was counting.Here's what happened next, and I think it's the part we all recognise even if the specifics differ. She started to doubt herself. Not because the feedback was accurate, but because it was relentless. A boss telling you you're not hard-nosed enough. A 360 review suggesting the people who love your work simply don't know what good looks like. Enough of that, over enough years, and you start doing the thing so many capable women do: talking yourself down before anyone else gets the chance. Maria caught herself mid-sentence doing exactly that in our conversation, thirty years on, and laughed about it. Old habits leave a long shadow.Isn't it crazy how easily we hand the job of valuing ourselves over to whoever happens to be scoring us at the time. And how rarely that scorer is measuring the thing that actually makes us extraordinary.The thing you do without trying, the thing that feels too easy to count as a real skill, is very often the exact thing you should be building a life around. And the people who tell you otherwise, the ones measuring you against a scorecard that was never designed for what you're actually good at, are not lying about the scorecard. They're just measuring the wrong thing.Worth asking yourself this week: what's the thing you've quietly decided doesn't count, simply because it never felt like effort?There was a line Maria used… “When I coach, I fly”. Underneath all the values language we throw around in this industry, I love this reframe - not “what do I believe in” but “what happens to my body when I'm doing the work.”Finally, I ask everyone I speak to on this series the same question: what won't you compromise on? Most people answer with a value. Growth. Honesty. Family. Maria's answer was more specific and, I think, more useful. She said she can't do work that isn't fun for her. If it's not a hell yeah, it's a no.Uncompromising in the BEST way!Enjoy the conversation…About Maria“I act as a catalyst, enabling people to become ‘unstuck' and move forward.

Today we were delighted to welcome James West, Managing Director and Head of Energy and Power Research at Melius Research. James is a longtime energy analyst with more than 25 years of experience leading research teams covering oilfield services, equipment, clean energy, and power at Lehman Brothers, Barclays, Evercore ISI, and now Melius. Since joining Melius, James has expanded his coverage to include independent power producers (IPPs) and the broader power ecosystem. We were pleased to visit with James to hear his latest perspectives on the rapidly evolving energy landscape and the investment themes shaping the next decade. In our conversation, James reflects on his transition from Evercore ISI to Melius and explains why he believes the traditional Wall Street research model is evolving toward a more integrated approach that combines energy, power, technology, and industrials. We discuss how AI-driven electricity demand is accelerating the convergence of these sectors, why access to reliable power has become the biggest bottleneck to AI deployment, and why understanding the entire energy value chain has become increasingly important for investors. We examine the latest earnings season, the recent wave of energy, power, and nuclear IPOs, and how investor sentiment has shifted from enthusiasm around AI infrastructure to a greater focus on execution and capital discipline. James explains why he remains constructive on the long-term outlook for oilfield services, offshore development, international upstream activity, independent power producers, and natural gas, while highlighting the growing importance of behind-the-meter power solutions, regulatory reform, and grid infrastructure. We explore the outlook for advanced nuclear, geothermal, and critical minerals, Canada's strategic role in North American energy markets, how investors are balancing long-duration growth opportunities with near-term market volatility, and why AI is changing the way companies communicate with investors. As James notes, “your press releases have to be written for Claude or ChatGPT, whoever's going to read it before the analyst.” We wrap up the discussion with James' reflections on New York City's enduring role as a global financial and innovation hub. We greatly enjoyed the conversation and appreciate James taking the time to join us. To start the show, Mike Bradley noted that fixed income markets were focused on the upcoming FOMC meeting, scheduled for Wednesday. The consensus expectation is for the Federal Reserve to leave interest rates unchanged. However, there remains a small possibility of a 25-basis-point rate increase, a move that could place Chairman Warsh in President Trump's crosshairs. From a broader equity market standpoint, the S&P 500 was up ~0.5% and the DJIA had gained 600 to 700 points. He attributed much of Tuesday's advance to the sharp decline in oil prices. He also highlighted ongoing sector rotation, with investors shifting capital out of semiconductor stocks and into industrial names. Apple joined the exclusive $5 trillion market-cap club. Another key area of focus this week will be AI-related capex, with three of the Magnificent Seven technology companies scheduled to report earnings. On the oil market front, he highlighted the sharp decline in crude prices, noting that Brent crude had fallen by ~$13/bbl during the week to ~$83/bbl, while WTI crude had declined by ~$11/bbl to ~$78/bbl. He attributed the selloff to rapidly shifting sentiment surrounding the on-again, off-again conflict with Iran. He concluded by noting that the Energy sector had been one of the market's strongest performers over the past several weeks but was down ~4% this week as declining oil prices weighed on sentiment. He emphasized that investors will be closely focused this week on second-quarter earnings reports from the U.S. integrated oil majors and refiners. Investors are hopeful that refiner commentary will provide greater insight into global refined product market fundamentals. Jeff Tillery noted that enthusiasm around AI-driven power infrastructure has cooled alongside AI capex sentiment, pressuring many merchant power and generation stocks, including several recent IPOs. Looking ahead, he believes the sector is entering an execution phase where investors will begin distinguishing between winners and losers rather than rewarding the entire theme uniformly.

(DJOW) Follow us on Instagram @pebcakpodcast   Please share this podcast with someone you know!  It helps us grow the podcast and we really appreciate it!   Simple 6 signup link https://simple6.co/r/CFUR98   Hugging Face allegedly had to fall back on China's GLM 5.2 to investigate the OpenAI hack after US frontier models refused to help with forensic analysis, unable to distinguish attacker from defender. - https://x.com/coinbureau/status/2079663328021057654?s=46 - https://x.com/t3chfalcon/status/2079998873183949221 Per the claim, safety guardrails on US frontier models blocked forensic assistance during the incident response because the models couldn't tell the investigating security team apart from the attacker, forcing Hugging Face to run GLM 5.2 on its own servers to complete the analysis — a notable reversal given the assumption that domestic models would be the trusted fallback in a crisis.   VW drivers running GrapheneOS say the automaker's app has locked them out entirely, deepening fears carmakers are forcing users back into Google's ecosystem.  VW has now confirmed to German outlet heise that it deliberately blocked GrapheneOS, LineageOS, and /e/OS users via Google's Play Integrity API — the same certification gatekeeper already used by Barclays, HSBC, Monzo, Netflix, and Disney+. - https://cybernews.com/privacy/volkswagen-grapheneos-app-issues/ - https://x.com/intcyberdigest/status/2079992915972018246?s=46 - https://x.com/orwellday/status/2079704437241610443?s=46 Roughly 500,000 GrapheneOS users are affected; VW's app still supports outdated Android versions but rejects the privacy-focused OS, and VW told one user GrapheneOS "is not an official Volkswagen offering." The lockout follows a recent VW API change that also cut off third-party smart-charging and home-automation tools, raising questions about EU Data Act compliance.   A 19-year-old alleged Scattered Spider member's globe-trotting VPN op-sec got shredded by a Windows telemetry ID he probably didn't know existed. - https://cybersecuritynews.com/windows-device-identifier-tracking/ Peter Stokes (dual US-Estonian, 19) allegedly ran an $8M extortion hit on a luxury retailer using voice-phishing, ngrok tunneling, and 77GB of S3 exfil — but the FBI cross-referenced his Microsoft Global Device Identifier (GDID) across Apple, Snapchat, Facebook, and even a Ubisoft login to place the same device on the same IPs in Tallinn, NYC, and Thailand, matching his travel records. Microsoft has since acknowledged using the GDID to track the user across three countries — meaning the VPN masked his network endpoint, but the GDID rendered that protection moot.   Dad Joke of the Week (DJOW)   Find the hosts on LinkedIn: Chris - https://www.linkedin.com/in/chlouie/ Glenn - https://www.linkedin.com/in/glennmedina/ Jason - https://www.linkedin.com/in/jason-seemann-12b7075/

Prince Andrew was effectively pushed out of Pitch@Palace, the entrepreneurship initiative he founded to connect startup founders with investors, after his disastrous 2019 BBC Newsnight interview about Jeffrey Epstein. The interview intensified scrutiny of Andrew's relationship with Epstein and triggered an exodus of corporate sponsors, including KPMG, Standard Chartered and Barclays. With the initiative's reputation becoming inseparable from Andrew's scandal, he stepped away from the project as part of his broader withdrawal from public royal duties.Pitch@Palace's offices were subsequently removed from Buckingham Palace, and plans were made for the organization to continue independently under the shortened name “Pitch,” without Andrew as its public face. The episode demonstrated how quickly his Epstein connections destroyed what had once been presented as one of his flagship achievements. Sponsors, partners and the palace itself concluded that keeping Andrew attached to the initiative posed a reputational risk, leaving him sidelined from the very project he had created and promoted as evidence of his value as a working royal.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.com

The higher we climb as leaders, the easier we expect decisions to become. Yet, the opposite is often true. Bigger responsibilities bring greater complexity, higher stakes, and more uncertainty. The strongest leaders aren't the ones who always know the right answer. They're the ones who have the courage to move forward without waiting for perfect certainty.In this episode, we unpack the questions that surface most often when leaders are faced with difficult decisions. We explore why fear can disguise itself as caution, how pressure quietly changes the way we think, when to trust data, intuition, and values, and why the quality of our decision-making process matters more than chasing perfect outcomes. Along the way, we're reminded that every decision becomes an opportunity to build confidence, strengthen trust, and grow into the kind of leader others are willing to follow, even when the path ahead isn't perfectly clear.Key Takeaways:Confidence Isn't the Starting Point – Why waiting to feel ready may be the very thing holding leaders back.The Process Behind Every Great Decision – Discover how a clear approach creates confidence when certainty isn't possible.The Cost of Waiting – See why the decisions we avoid often shape our teams more than the ones we make.When the Numbers Aren't Enough – How experienced leaders navigate the space between data, instinct, and values.What Every Tough Decision Leaves Behind – What happens after a decision often matters just as much as the decision itself.Resources MentionedThe Inspire Your Team to Greatness assessment (the Courage Assessment) - In less than 10 minutes, find out where you're empowering and inadvertently kills productivity, and get a custom report that will tell you step by step what you need to have your team get more done.
